I Am Your Cat
Do not think of me as an object to bring you fame in the show ring,my most prized trophy is a gentle touch from you.
Do not expect from me a new family of babies every four months,
I love my little ones and want them with me
so I may teach and play with them for many months
as a good mother should.
Do not keep me confined in a cage,
I am a free spirit, let me live with you in your home.
Do not think of me as an unknowing, uncaring or an independent being,
for I need you.
Accept me as I am, care for me, love me and be my friend,
and I will give you in return:
- a soft touch of my paw on your cheek when you are troubled;
- a companion when you are lonely; a clown when you are depressed;
- a trusting loving purring being, content to share your happeniness and sorrow.
for He has created you and me.
Do not think of me as a simple creature,
for I can see angels you can not see.
I can feel the vibrations and wonders of the universe
you can not feel.
I can communicate with you, if you will learn my language,
I understand yours.
And when the time comes when I will have to leave you, remember,
I will always be with you, for our spirits are one.
